From:Mindi Hurley, Economic Development Coordinator
Jim Witt, City Manager
Date:06/06/06
Re:Economic Development Foundation Appointment
Due to the recent election of Marvin Franklin to City Council, the Coppell Economic Development
Foundation has a vacant seat that needs to be filled. Each July, City Council selects five members from the
Economic Development Committee to serve one-year terms on the Foundation. The replacement for
Marvin Franklin will finish out the one-year term Mr. Franklin was appointed to in July 2005. The current
make-up of the Coppell Economic Development Foundation includes Gary Roden, Bill Rohloff, Jason
Crawford, Kris Fichtner and the seat that was vacated by Marvin Franklin. The remaining members on the
Economic Development Committee to select from include Bill Lowery, Larry Kingsbury, James Pranske
and Kenneth Luttmer.
Due to the potential for a professional conflict of interest, staff recommends appointing Bill Lowery to the
Coppell Economic Development Foundation.

HISTORY: On July 14, 1998, Council approved a Site Plan and Minor Plat on this
property to allow for the construction of an 80,000-square-foot office
building. At that time, the proposed user for the property was a call center.
Although the building was constructed and the site fully developed and
landscaped, it was never occupied for that use.
Item # 4
Page 2 of 3
On March 14, 2000, Council approved a Replat and an Amended Site Plan
for this building to allow for the construction of a 20,120-square-foot
courtyard area addition to house mechanical equipment to serve a start-up
internet access provider, PSINet. Unfortunately, they occupied this building
for less than a year.
In August 2003, a Minor Amending Site Plan, supported by the Fire Marshal,
was administratively approved to allow for the closing of one driveway and
the widening of another, with a gated entrance and additional landscaping.
In November 2003, Council approved an amendment allowing for a
sunbrella fabric canopy to cover 28 parking spaces. In October 2005, another
Minor Amending Site Plan was administratively approved for the addition of
bollards and shrubs along the perimeter of the site.
On March 16, 2006, a site plan amendment to allow a two-story, 17,550-
square-foot expansion to the existing structure was recommended for
approval by the Planning and Zoning Commission. Subsequent to the
meeting, the applicant requested that the item be removed from the City
Council agenda in order to increase the proposed expansion to 27,200 square
feet.
TRANSPORTATION: Lakeshore Drive is a concrete street with a 41-foot pavement width
within a 60-foot right-of-way. Crestside Drive is a concrete street
with a 37-foot pavement width within a 60-foot right-of-way.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING: North – Office; LI (Light Industrial)
South – vacant; A (Agriculture)
East – warehousing; LI (Light Industrial)
West – warehousing; LI (Light Industrial)
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for Light
Industrial/Showroom uses.
DISCUSSION: This request is for a new two-story office addition to the south side of the
existing structure. The addition is extending into an area previously used
as parking and fire lane; therefore, the parking space total is being reduced
from 267 to 216 and the fire lane is being shifted south. The reduction in
parking will not bring the site out of conformance with our parking
regulations. The uses are now being classified as 51,065-square feet of
computer area and 56,137-square feet office area, bringing the required
parking to 210 spaces. The proposed elevations will match the existing

structure, the majority being a reddish-brown “Park Rose” with a band of
dark brown “Ironstone” with cast stone star accents and windows
throughout. There are a total of 28 new trees being added to the site.
Twelve Redbud ornamentals are being added within the 13-foot TP&L
easement on the south property line. The remaining trees are over-story
and have been added throughout the site to meet the tree requirements of
the Landscape section of the Zoning Ordinance. All and all, staff is in
support of the building addition, the fire lane shift and landscaping
modification and has only minor changes to be made (listed as conditions
of approval).
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of this request, subject to the following
conditions:
1) The new addition shall be designed using brick with steel framework
adjacent to fire lane, so that any potential wall failure during fire
conditions will minimize chance of failure into collapse zone.
2) A tree removal permit will be required prior to start of construction.
3) Contact Jeff Curry at 972-888-1330 to discuss electric load
requirements.
4) Remove bold line on the southwest section of the site and show all
existing bollards.
5) The floor area ratio should read .377 to 1.
6) Verify all required/provided tree calculations for each landscaping
category (Perimeter, Non-vehicular and Interior).
ALTERNATIVES
1) Recommend approval of the request
2) Recommend disapproval of the request
3) Recommend modification of the request
4) Take under advisement for reconsideration at a later date.

Page 2 of 3
HISTORY: This property was originally platted into one, 27.85 acre lot in 1997.
Subsequent to that plat approval, two buildings were constructed on
the lot.
TRANSPORTATION: Royal Lane is a C4D/6, four-lane concrete divided roadway
contained within a 100-foot right-of-way. Northpointe Drive is a
two-lane, undivided concrete road with 80 feet of right-of-way.
Gateview Boulevard is an existing two-lane, concrete cul-de-sac
street contained within 60 feet of right-of-way, with limited access to
the Fellowship Church parking lot.
SURROUNDING LAND USE & ZONING:
North - office/warehousing: LI Light Industrial
South - office/warehousing; LI, Light Industrial
East - office/warehousing; LI, Light Industrial
West - church parking lot; LI, Light Industrial
COMPREHENSIVE PLAN: The Comprehensive Plan shows the property as suitable for light
industrial uses.
DISCUSSION: With the exception of an additional landscaping requirement, this
is a rather straight-forward case in that the owner of these two
buildings wishes to replat into two lots with the purpose of selling
an existing 297,000-square-foot building located on the southern
portion. The replat into two lots is required for ownership of the
building and the land upon which it sits to legally transfer.
Fortunately, when the property was initially developed, a twenty-
foot wide landscaped area was included between the two buildings
(generally a problem with replats). However, even though we
have the twenty-foot buffer, 15 trees are required to be on the north
property line of the southern lot. An on-site analysis resulted in 13
trees being properly located, requiring two additional trees to
conform to our zoning code. In addition, the landscape plan does
not accurately depict the parking configuration along the north
property line. There are more parking spaces along the northwest
boundary of the site than the landscape plan currently shows. The
plan needs to be modified to show the actual parking lot pattern.
Since this is an existing building meeting our other existing
development standards—parking dimensions, site plan, facade, fire

lanes, etc.—we can support this request with conditions relative to
landscaping and parking modification.
RECOMMENDATION TO THE PLANNING AND ZONING COMMISSION:
Staff is recommending APPROVAL of this request, subject to the following
conditions:
1. Provide two additional trees (species listed in the Plant Palette) of at least
3-inch caliper in the north landscape area.
2. Add the following note to the Landscape Plan Exhibit under Perimeter

Section would not apply to the person who was erroneously listed on the
Database.
